HDMI Labeling Requirements Promise a Stew of Confusion

URL: http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/X8L-Wn-LWiw/HDMI-Labeling-Requirements-Promise-a-Stew-of-Confusion

An anonymous reader writes "In many ways HDMI has revolutionized the way we connect devices. By unifying video and audio into a single cable manufacturers have been able to make their products easier to set up than ever before. Until recently there hasn't actually been much difference in HDMI cables. But things are about to get confusing with the introduction of HDMI 1.4. By the 1st of January 2012 manufacturers of products with HDMI ports won't actually be able to call HDMI 1.4 by its real name. In fact, come November 18 this year those selling cables won't be able to use HDMI 1.4 or HDMI 1.3 to delineate between different products. Instead cables that support version 1.4 of the HDMI standard will have to use one of five different labels. The new labels? Well, as this story explains, they're going to cause a new level of confusion for anyone hooking up a home cinema. Add to this the fact that the HDMI organisation keeps the details of its specifications secret, and translation between version numbering and marketing-speak will be well nigh impossible."

Intel's 50Gbps Light Peak Successor

URL: http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~3/42K3k3ny4tA/Intels-50Gbps-Light-Peak-Successor

Barence writes "Intel has unveiled yet another high-speed optical interface – before its long-awaited Light Peak connector has even reached the market. The Light Peak optical interconnect can transfer data at 10Gbps in both directions, and is touted as an all-in-one replacement for USB, DisplayPort, and HDMI. The new interface uses an indium phosphide hybrid laser inside the controller chip — a process that Intel calls silicon photonics — rather than using a separate optical module, as with Light Peak. And by encoding data at 12.5Gbits/sec across four laser beams of differing wavelengths, the connector yields a total bandwidth of 50Gbps, five times that offered by Light Peak. 'This is not a technology that's ten years away, but maybe three to five years,' Intel fellow Mario Paniccia announced. 'Light Peak, as we've stated, will launch next year.'" HotHardware quotes Intel in more detail on the difference between the two programs: "This research is separate from Intel's Light Peak technology... Light Peak is an effort to bring a multi-protocol 10Gbps optical connection to Intel client platforms for nearer-term applications. Silicon Photonics research aims to use silicon integration to bring dramatic cost reductions, reach tera-scale data rates, and bring optical communications to an even broader set of high-volume applications."

HP ZR30w 30-Inch S-IPS LCD Monitor Review

URL: http://www.hothardware.com/Reviews/HP-ZR30w-30Inch-SIPS-LCD-Monitor-Review

How should you go about determining what size monitor to buy? It's simple - go out and purchase the biggest, baddest display you can afford, because really, you only get one shot at this thing called life, so why waste it staring at a 23-inch panel? If you're still not convinced, consider that, more than any other component in your entire build, it's the monitor you'll use to its fullest 100 percent of the time. You can't say that about your dual-videocards, six-core processor, or even your keyboard, but it

Panasonic's consumer-grade 3D camcorder leaks out, the HDC-SDT750

URL: http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/25/panasonics-consumer-grade-3d-camcorder-leaks-out-the-hdc-sdt75/

We'd heard Panasonic was planning a more affordable stereoscopic 3D camcorder, but it looks like we won't have to wait until a mysterious July 28th Tokyo unveiling to find out for sure -- it's called the HDC-SDT750, and Panny's advertising it as the "World's first 3D Shooting Camcorder." Leaks at all the seams of the company's website afforded us the above picture, and the surprising revelation that the product may not be a brand-new camcorder, but rather an existing high-end 3MOS model (we'd guess the HDC-HS700) with a "3D conversion lens" attached. If the yet-to-be-activated product page's source code can be believed, the SDT750 will shoot in 1080p AVCHD at 60fps, feature Panny's proprietary Hybrid O.I.S. image stabilization technology, and come in a lovely shade of Henry Ford black. That's all we have for now (save a second tiny picture after the break) but rest assured we'll be keeping tabs on this one.

Update: Looks as if even more images and purported specifications have leaked out ahead of the official reveal.

[Thanks, John]

Intel's 3.2GHz hexacore i7-970 now shipping

URL: http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/19/intels-3-2ghz-hexacore-i7-970-now-shipping/

Just this once, DigiTimes has turned out to be spot on with its prognostication. The six-core Core i7-970 rumor we heard earlier this month has now transmogrified into a retail product, and just as promised, it brings most of the goodies of the sublime i7-980X at a moderately more affordable $899 price point. Based on the same 32nm Gulftown architecture as its costlier brother, the 970 will run at 3.2GHz by default, though presumably it too will be able to crank up speeds using Intel's Turbo Boost. Aside from that, you get a healthy 12MB of on-chip cache and the standard triple-channel DDR3 memory controller. UK speed freaks can order one up as well now, clearly a tiny bit ahead of Intel itself making things official, so we'd advise checking with your nearest super-CPU purveyors in case they too have received some early units of this multithreaded code cruncher.

Cientistas criam método para aumentar velocidade de elétron em chips

Cientistas coreanos conseguiram aumentar em 20 vezes a velocidade de elétrons em chips de silício, elemento básico na indústria de computação.Chips tradicionais de silício possuem um nível de resistência elétrica que impõe restrições à velocidade dos elétrons. Quanto mais rápido é seu movimento, mais rápida é a transmissão de informação e, consequentemente, o poder de processamento.Para quebrar esses limites, cientistas estão considerando outros materiais, principalmente o grafeno, composto por uma camada fina de carbono que conduz eletricidade melhor que qualquer outra substância a temperatura ambiente.Leia mais (16/07/2010 - 17h25)

Notícia velha: Alemães transferem dados de 60 DVDs em um segundo

URL: http://softwarelivre.org/portal/noticia-velha-alemaes-transferem-dados-de-60-dvds-em-um-segundo

Cientistas do Instituto de Telecomunicações de Fraunhofer a atingiram um novo recorde de transmissão de dados através de cabos de fibra óptica. Em parceria com a fabricante japonesa Fujitsu, o grupo conseguiu atingir a velocidade de 2,56 Terabits por segundo em um link de 160 km de distância. A velocidade equivale à transmissão de 60 DVDs em um segundo.

O recorde anterior, de 1,28 Terabits por segundo, estava nas mãos de um grupo japonês. Atualmente, as redes mais rápidas podem transferir dados na velocidade de 40 Gigabits por segundo, cerca de 50 vezes menos do que o atingido pela equipe alemã do Instituto Fraunhofer.

Há poucas semanas esta mesma equipe, também em parceria com a Fujitsu, já havia quebrado um recorde. A transmissao de dados se faz em cabos de fibra óptica por intermédio de pulsos ultracurtos de luz, os dados são normalmente codificados ligando-se ou desligando-se um raio laser, sendo que o pulso, ou "1", representa o estado ligado, ao passo que o zero é o estado desligado. Assim, em geral há dois estados de intensidade de luz para transmitir o dado. Os pesquisadores do Fraunhofer conseguiram espremer mais dados dentro de um mesmo pulso. Através de um processo denominado "modulação por fase", lograram compactar quatro estados de intensidade num único pulso.

Intel's Sandy Bridge CPUs to arrive ahead of schedule, could be with us this year

URL: http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/14/intels-sandy-bridge-cpus-to-tape-out-ahead-of-schedule-could-b/

Right now, Intel has every right to lay contentedly atop the laurels of its biggest quarterly profit ever, but that's not what the company is doing at all. Instead of protracting the life of its current-gen processors unduly, Intel is planning to accelerate the roadmap for its next generation of multicore parts, codenamed Sandy Bridge. The difference between the Nehalem-based stuff we have today and the upcoming chip is that the Sandy Bridge architecture takes everything down to 32nm -- including the graphics processor and memory controller which are built at 45nm at present -- while keeping it all within the same enclosure. Enthusiastic feedback from customers who were given tasters of the Sandy stuff has been to blame for this haste on Intel's part, and we're told that with additional investment in 32nm infrastructure, the chip giant plans to make deliveries late this year. That in turn could potentially result in some eager vendor pushing a Sandy Bridge laptop or desktop out before 2010 is through -- which would be all kinds of nice.

Samsung quietly expands its 3D Blu-ray player lineup with a few updated models

URL: http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/12/samsung-quietly-expands-its-3d-blu-ray-player-lineup-with-a-few/

Don't be surprised to see a couple of new Samsung Blu-ray players on the shelf at local or online retailers while shopping, as it's rolling out new 3D capable models in the BD-C5900, BD-C6800 and BD-C7900. The $399 (MSRP) BD-C7900 updates the older BD-C6900 with two HDMI outs, useful for those with an older receiver that isn't HDMI 1.4 compatible, while the $279 BD-C6800 seems to have all the features of the BD-C6900 except for that porthole on top, and comes in at a lower price. Last up is the BD-C5900 with an MSRP of $229 which puts it within reach of two bills at retail, but means losing the 1GB of internal storage featured by the other two players. The product pages aren't all fully updated on Samsung's site yet, but the BD-C5900 has already arrived at Amazon and Best Buy and the others shouldn't be far behind. Of course, if 3D's not your thing, we'd still keep an eye out for their arrival -- a price break on the older 2D-only models that were released earlier this year shouldn't be too far behind.

Novo material descoberto permite armazenar até 5TB em um único disco!

URL: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HitechLive/~3/Y3NAK8gBj20/

E quando pensávamos que os discos ópticos já estavam praticamente em vias de serem aposentados, a Universidade de Tokio acaba de fazer uma bela descoberta. Armazenar nada mais, nada menos, que 5TB de dados. Atualmente a capacidade dos discos é cerca de 1.000x menor.

Segundo Shin-ichi Ohkoshi, químico da universidade, o material se trata de óxido de titânio. Segundo ele, a principal vantagem deste material, é que o material pode variar de cor quando exposto a luz do laser. Além do mais, é bem mais barato de ser produzido que o atual disco Blu-ray, o que poderia causar uma pequena revolução no setor.

Como sempre, em todas as atualizações desse nível, os leitores e gravadores atuais não o suportariam. Quem sabe isso não vire realidade?
